TCS: Tech Central Station - Nonlinear Thinking: "The term 'nonlinear' has been misused and abused by pundits, to the point where it has degenerated into a fuzzy, feel-good (or feel-cool) expression. I want to use it here in a more well-defined sense.

Artist turns animals into everyday objects

Ananova - A Chilean artist is making a name for herself with an exhibition in which stuffed animals are transformed into household objects. Artworks on display include a chick turned into a lamp, and 'sheep bag' - a lamb carcass fitted with handles. Artist Caterina Purdy says her exhibition at the Experimental Arts Centre in Santiago is intended to be humorous but also makes a serious point.

'There is also irony and humour in my objects as well as a criticism of the way animals are treated by society.'"

The balls make a percussive and melodic sound, whose pitch depends on how fast the ball is moving when it hits the line."
